Spain midfielder Andres Iniesta has expressed the side's delight at qualifying for the World Cup.

La Roja overcame Georgia 2-0 to confirm their place in next summer's tournament, and the Barcelona playmaker has spoken of the happy mood inside the camp following the qualification.

"It was a great day to go to Brazil. We are all very happy," he told reporters.

"I felt a very strong emotion this evening. There was a mutual appreciation between the crowd and myself."

Spain are the current world and European champions.
